Patent number: 8631901Abstract: An acoustic structure includes plate members defining a plurality of hollow regions in parallel relation to each other. Opening portions are formed in one surface (reflective surface) of the plate members in corresponding relation to the hollow regions and in such a manner as to communicate the hollow regions with an external surface. A plurality of sound absorbing members are provided in a dispersed fashion on regions of the one surface (reflective surface) other than the opening portions and neighborhoods of the opening portions. As a modification, a sound absorbing member may be loaded in one of the hollow regions and partly exposed to the outer space through the corresponding opening portion.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2011Date of Patent: January 21, 2014Assignee: Yamaha CorporationInventors: Yoshikazu Honji, Junichi Fujimori, Makoto Kurihara

Patent number: 8546674Abstract: An object is to readily visualize a propagation state of sound emitted within a sound space. A sound to light converter includes: a microphone; a light emitting unit; and a light emission control unit that acquires an instantaneous value of an output signal from the microphone in synchronization with a strobe signal and that allows the light emitting unit to emit light with a luminance level corresponding to the acquired instantaneous value. The strobe signal is generated and output in a signal generator of the sound to light converter. Alternatively, the strobe signal is generated and output in a control device of a sound field visualizing system in synchronization with an emission of sound to be visualized by the sound to light converter.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2011Date of Patent: October 1, 2013Assignee: Yamaha CorporationInventors: Makoto Kurihara, Junichi Fujimori

Patent number: 8157052Abstract: In an acoustic structure, sound absorbing effect is achieved by interference between incident waves falling in an opening portion and reflected waves radiated from the opening as a result of resonance occurring within a hollow member in response to the incident waves, and a sound absorbing region is formed, for example, in a frontal direction of the opening portion. Sound scattering effect is achieved through interaction between the above-mentioned interference and interference between the incident waves and sound waves radiated from the opening portion, and a sound scattering region is formed, for example, near the sound absorbing region. A sound scattering effect is achieved by flows of gas molecules being produced in an oblique direction, not normal to the opening portion and reflective surface, due to a phase difference between the sound waves radiated from the opening portion and the sound waves radiated from the reflective surface.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2010Date of Patent: April 17, 2012Assignee: Yamaha CorporationInventors: Junichi Fujimori, Yoshikazu Honji

Patent number: 8073187Abstract: A speaker capable of properly adjusting a spring characteristic with which a voice coil is driven and capable of being driven in large amplitude. When a position control coil wound around a bobbin is at a reference position, both ends of the coil cross a magnetic gap formed between external and internal yokes by a predetermined length and Lorentz forces acting on the front and rear ends are balanced. When the voice coil moves in either forward or rearward direction, lengths of the magnetic gap crossed by the front and rear ends of the control coil are different therebetween, and the vector sum of Lorentz forces acting on the position control coil is opposite in direction from the movement of the voice coil, whereby the voice coil is stably held at the reference position.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2008Date of Patent: December 6, 2011Assignee: Yamaha CorporationInventors: Seiichi Hashimoto, Junichi Fujimori

Patent number: 7158488Abstract: One or more nodes on a communication network are selected and set as one node group. In each of the nodes, group identification information representing the node group to which the node belongs is stored in advance. The group identification information is attached to the header of a data packet to be transmitted, so that nodes constituting a node group that should commonly receive data can be readily identified by comparing the group identification information imparted to the transmitted data packet and the group identification information stored in each receiving node. Given node can choose to become a node of a particular function, such as a clock master node, in which case control is performed to delete, from the node group, a node having so far played the role of the node of the particular function in such a manner that there exists only one node of the particular function per node group.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2001Date of Patent: January 2, 2007Assignee: Yamaha CorporationInventor: Junichi Fujimori
